IP 700 Series Phone Administrator Guide

Defining Line Registrations

The IP 706 phone supports up to 6 lines and the IP 712 phone supports up to 12 lines each served from a
unique proxy/registrar server. This allows a different line for every line key on the phone. The line is called
a multiple call appearance (MCA) type if it will be assigned to one or more line keys on the same phone. It
is called a shared call appearance (SCA) type if the line is shared across multiple phones. Table 3 provides
a few guidelines to follow when assigning line types to a phone.
Guideline
An MCA should never be an SCA.
An MCA should be assigned to at least 2 line keys for
complete call handling flexibility.
Consider disabling call logging for SCA-type lines.
Many of the calls logged on this type of line may not be
useful and could quickly fill the history buffer.
If the number of pop-up windows becomes distracting
on SCA-type lines, disable CallerID pop-ups.
The line registrations are defined in the MAC address-based configuration file for each phone. Additional
information about the parameters shown in the following example is provided in Appendix A on page 61.
This example shows how to configure an MCA line of a PBX:
#Define Line 1. Used to authenticate with the registrar.
Reg.1.AuthUserID 2000
#Enable popup window used for incoming calls.
Reg.1.AuthPassword hello
Reg.1.CallerIdPopup true
#Required only if the AuthUserId isn't the DID number.
Reg.1.Did 2000
#Define domain used to form Invite URIs and Registration request URIs.
Reg.1.Domain adtran.com
#Enables the Line registration.
Reg.1.Enable true
